ppcli

---

ppcli stands for pyproject CLI. It is a Python package designed to provide an easy way to specify and manage auxiliary commands within a pyproject.toml file for any Python project.

Purpose

The primary purpose of ppcli is to allow developers to define and manage common project tasks, such as test, lint, and migration commands, directly within the pyproject.toml file. This ensures that all project-specific commands are centralized and easily accessible.

Installation

You can install ppcli via pip:

pip install ppcli

Usage

After installing ppcli, you can define your project-specific commands within your pyproject.toml file under the [tool.ppcli] section.

Example pyproject.toml Configuration

[tool.ppcli]
lint="black --check --diff ."
fmt="black ."
clean = [
    "find . -type d -name __pycache__ -empty -print0 | xargs --null --no-run-if-empty rmdir",
    "coverage erase",
]
test = [
    "clean",
    "pytest --cov --blockage -x -s --no-header -ra",
]

Defining and Combining Commands

• Single Command: Each key under [tool.ppcli] represents a command that can be executed. The value can be a single command string or a list of commands.
• Combined Commands: Use the keys of other commands to create combined tasks. In the example above, the test command executes the clean command followed by pytest.

Running Commands

To execute the defined commands, simply run the ppcli tool followed by the command name:

ppcli <command>

For example:

ppcli lint
ppcli fmt
ppcli test
